Organic Residues and Bokashi Influence in the Growth of Alibertia edulis

Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate the use of different organic residues and bokashi in the substrate formulation in the initial growth of marmelo-do-cerrado. The experiment was carried out in pots under shading (50%). The following organic residues were tested: poultry manure (PM) with rice husk base, PM with wood shavings base, Organosuper®, and castor bean meal, in a control with only soil. All treatments were assessed with and without bokashi. The experimental arrangement was a 5 × 2 factorial scheme in a randomized block design with four replicates and four plants. The greatest plant height was observed when the plants were cultivated in PM with rice husk base with bokashi. The pigment contents, photochemical efficiency, biomasses and quality of seedlings were highest in Organosuper® with bokashi. We recommend the use of Organosuper® and PM with rice husk base, both with bokashi, in the growth of marmelo-do-cerrado.

CHICKEN MANURE AND LUMINOUS AVAILABILITY INFLUENCE GAS EXCHANGE AND PHOTOCHEMICAL PROCESSES IN Alibertia edulis (Rich.) A. Rich SEEDLINGS

“…The experimental unit comprised four plastic pots with a capacity of 4.2 dm 3 , with one plant each. The doses of CM were established based on the study by Santos et al (2020) wherein, among the organic residues tested, the CM with rice husk base in a single dose of 4.16 g kg -1 , contributed to the production of seedlings of A. edulis.…”

“…Bokashi improved seedling survival rate and height during transplanting (Jaramillo-López et al, 2015) and showed the greatest positive effect on initial plant growth and development (Bócoli et al, 2020). In addition, humic acids extracted from Bokashi demonstrated positive effects on the initial corn growth performance and development (Baldotto & Baldotto, 2016) and chlorophyll content (Prisa, 2020;Santos et al, 2020), and photosynthetic capacity (Olle, 2021). Amendment of Bokashi enhanced plant height of Alibertia edulis (Santos et al, 2020), onion (Álvarez-Solís et al, 2016, and jalapeño pepper plants (Álvarez-Solís et al, 2016).…”

Role of Organic Manure Bokashi Improving Plant Growth and Nutrition: A Review

“…Bokashi improved plant growth due to its rich composition, including bioactive compounds, ripening, and increased nutrient content (Abed El-Hamied, 2014;Olle, 2021). Rice husk and poultry manure based Bokashi, Organosuper ® with Bokashi, and wood shavings and poultry manure base (without Bokashi) showed the highest Dickson quality index for development and growth stability, including high photosynthetic pigments, high mass production and growth attributes, and high quality in the young plants (Santos et al, 2020).…”
